Utilizing all available channels, the Physicians Committee reaches new people and a bigger audience every day.
Since 1985, Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine’s lifesaving work has resulted in major victories and accomplishments for animals, people, and the planet:
ALL medical schools in the U.S. and Canada stopped using live animals to train medical students.
After PCRM presented the Power Plate, a healthful, plant-based dietary guide, the USDA unveiled its strikingly similar guide, MyPlate.
The NIH stopped all its experiments on chimpanzees.
Thousands of medical students and health professionals learn about plant-based nutrition at our annual International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine.
California banned the sale of cosmetics tested on animals.
The Environmental Protection Agency pledged to stop testing chemicals on ALL mammals by 2035.
Our Food for Life plant-based cooking classes are taught by 300+ instructors in over 45 U.S. states and 20 countries.
PCRM’s clinical research department has published dozens of peer-reviewed studies proving the health benefits of a plant-based diet.
ALL pediatrics residency programs in the U.S. and Canada stopped training on live animals.
We owe our incredible victories to our dedicated and compassionate PCRM members! Help us save even more lives by supporting our work today!
